Our Family Self- Sufficiency program <br />promotes resident self - sufficiency by providing training, education, and monetary assistance to <br />families aspiring to be self - sufficient. <br />In an effort to mutually promote economic self-sufficiency opportunities for low to moderate <br />income families, Salisbury Housing Authority and Salisbury -Rowan Community Action Agency <br />entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The purpose of the MOU is to provide <br />additional resources for in common clients such as housing, financial support, transportation, <br />education, child care, health related needs and family development services to assist with <br />becoming more self sufficient. <br />Therefore, I am supportive of the opportunities the CSBG provides with this grant. I strongly <br />recommend the awarding of this grant to the Salisbury -Rowan Community Action Agency. <br />Please contact me at 704- 636 -1410, extension 126, if additional information is required. <br />Sincerely, <br />HOUSING AUTHORITY OF THE <br />CITY OF SALISBURY, N.C. <br />Sam Foust <br />Executive Director <br />Attachment number 2 <br />G -2 Page 366 <br />
